4.Data for the provision of the website and the creation of log files

If you use this website for purely informational purposes without transmitting data to us in any other way (e.g. by registering or using the contact form), we collect technically necessary data via server log files, which are automatically transmitted to our server, e.g:

  • Identity (identd)

  • User name (if page is password protected)

  • User agent (browser type and browser version)

  • Language and version of the browser software

The temporary storage of the data is necessary for the course of a website visit in order to be able to display our website to you. This processing is technically necessary to ensure the functionality of the website and the security of the information technology systems. The legal basis for the processing is therefore our legitimate interest in ensuring the availability, security and stability of our website.

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended. The log files are stored directly for a maximum of 7 days and are only accessible to administrators. After that, they are only available indirectly via the reconstruction of backup tapes and are permanently deleted after a maximum of four weeks.

To provide our online services, we use storage space, computing capacity and software that we rent or otherwise obtain from the server provider Wix.com Ltd, 40 Hanamal Tel Aviv St., Tel Aviv 6350671, Israel (web host).

We have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider. This is a contract prescribed by privacy laws, which guarantees that the provider will only process your personal data in accordance with our instructions and in compliance with the applicable privacy laws. In cases where there is no adequacy decision, we have agreed other suitable guarantees with the data recipients in accordance with the provisions of the applicable privacy laws.

If you contact us as part of an existing contractual relationship or contact us in advance for information about our range of services or our other services, the personal data you provide will be processed for the purpose of processing and responding to your contact request in accordance with contract fulfilment or pre-contractual measures; otherwise, to safeguard our legitimate interests in responding to customer/contact inquiries appropriately.

We delete your personal data as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of contact inquiries, this is generally the case when it is clear from the circumstances that the specific matter in question has been conclusively dealt with.

6.Plugins and embedded functions and content

We use social plugins from various social media platform providers (providers) on our website. When you visit one of our websites that contains such a plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection with the servers of the provider in question. The content of the plugin is transmitted by the provider directly to your browser and integrated into the website.

By integrating the plugins, the provider receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding page of our website. Various usage data (such as the URL accessed and the user's IP number) is forwarded to the third-party provider, which may set cookies that identify the user . If you are logged in to the respective provider, the provider has the option of assigning this information to your account. This data can be used to tailor content or advertising to you. You can find information on this and the available setting options on the following websites:

The legal basis for processing the data is your consent. We integrate the plugin via the so-called "two-click solution". This means that no personal data flows to the plugin owner when you visit our website. Only when you give your consent via the integrated preview button does a data flow from our website to the respective provider start.
